Makes 6 servings 

This Lighter Deviled Egg Pasta Salad is perfect to make with those leftover hard boiled eggs. This lighter deviled egg salad has all the classic flavors of deviled eggs but in salad form. This is one of my favorites to bring to a picnic or BBQ! This salad can be eaten as a side dish or even as a full meal. We love this on toasty sourdough bread, crackers, vegetables, or straight from the bowl.

What ingredients do I need to make this Lighter Deviled Egg Pasta Salad?

  • Small protein pasta-like shells or elbows. I like to use Barilla Protein elbow pasta.
  • Light mayo– I like to use Kraft mayo
  • Non fat plain Greek yogurt – I like to use Chobani plain Greek yogurt. If you’re not a huge Greek yogurt fan, don’t worry-you will never know it’s there. The flavors in the dressing over powers the yogurt.
  • Pickle juice
  • Dijon mustard
  • Hard boiled eggs-peeled and diced 
  • Red onion- finely chopped 
  • Dill pickles-chopped 
  • Garlic powder
  • Paprika
  • Kosher salt and black pepper-to taste
  • Green onions-sliced for garnish 

How do you recommend cooking the hard boiled eggs?

I love my rapid egg cooker. You can find the egg cooker HERE online on Amazon.
